BUSY!! :)

this is the word for the month: BUSY!

i know i havent uploaded anything or even bothered to write.. but because i got myself a full time job, my time is consumed into work or rest. and i even try to fit in some social time with friends.

so much has been going on in the Pacific. Philippines has suffered a major storm that flooded many homes.. Samoa had a treacherous earthquake that caused a tsunami to damage more of their areas. The Marianas are encountering many typhoon watch. There are more i can name.. but its sad to read about it on the news..

anyways, im headed to bed now. hopefully ill post up pictures soon!

LOVING it!

ok SERIOUSLY... GOD IS SOOO GOOD.. it is totally worth being patient!

although i do not have a permanent job at the moment, i do have a temporary job that pays well. and a few side jobs to keep me going. I LOVE THE JOB. The people are really awesome, and I'm just constantly busy doing something.. :)

I have a new side job for the week: i got called in to watch over my friend's grandmother for a week while the whole family leaves for the states. My duties are pretty simple. All i have to do is cook lunch & dinner for the mom, and to sleep at the house at nights.. Everything is provided.. and I'm even getting paid $500 bucks for it! also, they are offering me to use their cars while their away.

while im at work in the daytime.. im getting paid at nighttime! :) i am really really grateful! to being busy is what i really wanted! God knew I needed this.

anyways, sorry for NO PICTURE. :(

NIGHT

there is way too much beauty on this earth. i may not be able to capture it beautifully in camera, but i sure can enjoy it by just spending sometime outdoors. i took this picture when i got home one evening, and realized how gorgeous the moon was within the clouds.



i've really been lazy with photography. i don't have that same desire when i first got my camera.. and i get discourage easily when i see others take WAY better photos than i do.. i dont intend on becoming some professional, but i do want to become really awesome at it. i need to keep learning stuff about it, but i have no time or money to invest in it. hopefully ill be able to know more about it, and LOVE it more than i do now. i really don't like the uploading.. and even the editing.. :(

anyways, first day at my job went super well. i actually LOVED it! i was constantly occupied with work which made the day go by sooo fast! im so grateful! :) its only a temporary job which would last me about 2-3 weeks.. but to have something is undeniably great!

PRETZELS!

ok being back on island is so bad for me! all these foods i keep coming across with is soo tempting! my friend ethan is quite an expert in making some very delightful pretzels! My favorite is the cinnamon kind.. soo yummy!! anyways, i wish i knew how to make them.. :P


also in other news... I GOT A JOB!! or at least its temporary! BUT I GOT A JOB!! :)

MUFFINS!

I've never made muffins before, and this is my first attempt to it. So far it's edible and looks good. Hopefully my sunday school girls will like it. It's chocolate chip. yum! :)

Wedding at Two Lover's Point

let me start with this: I LOST MY CELLPHONE. I don't normally lose things, but when I do, its always gone. I tend to be forgetful though so I guess that doesn't help. I totally got grilled for losing it, but thankfully, I'm getting a better phone in return. My old phone really sucked. It was a matter of time I got rid of it. Believe me, it wasn't purposefully either.

In other news, I did my first wedding photoshoot. Honestly, there wasn't much I could do since the wedding itself was very casual. No bouquet, no entourage, no fancy reception. Family and friends were mostly in jeans. I was basically asked to just take pictures for the spur of the moment. I wish I could have done more, but they didn't expected me to do much.

The wedding was at Two Lover's Point. It was a nice day out, but it was really bright and sunny and extremely hot. It was nice and simple. I'm happy for the newlyweds. :)

Anyways, im stuck editing what needs to be edited. its the only thing i don't enjoy doing very much... ha i also don't like uploading.. :P

well heres a photo of the newlyweds..

BLACK&WHITE

i believe this here is such a precious moment. :)
Baby Gregory Paul Schacher Jr. is the son of Greg & Hermi Schacher.
He is extremely adorable and soo beautiful!

SUN & RAIN

wow.. it has been awhile now that i haven't posted anything new. normally, if i had new pictures to put up, i would add them on my facebook.

anyways, i've been trying to catch a beautiful sunset these past few days.. but everytime i see one, i dont have my camera.. :( but i do have other pics i played along with. hopefully its likeable..

Rain over the hills.

a view at ASAN BEACH park.

another day in GUAM!

flower of the day.

a few surfers & bodyboarders out there..

high tide.. means DARK BLUE WATER.

if you saw these waves in person, then this picture doesn't do justice.

P L U M E R I A S

i havent had a lot of motivation in taking pictures. most of all, i just dont like uploading. GOOD NEWS.. the sun is finally OUT and barely any rain is dropping. ok thats it for now. ill put more pics up later.

it doesnt STOP raining..

omgosh.. for the weekend, i've been stuck indoors. the rain keeps coming. and coming. i dont know when it will stop.. i guess i have to resort to reading a book or watching tv. my mom suggested cleaning... but im not feeling it. :P i would rather take pictures.. its not my best, but i like it.

M A J E S T I C

sunsets in GUAM are just far too beautiful to put on camera.

BIRD of PARADISE

check out this sweet looking bird! oh wait.. its just the BIRD of PARADISE.. soo pretty & unique! i think its such a beautiful flower!

B A C K F L I P!

heres my friend, MILES, who does all these crazy daredevil stuff. he's real good at doing backflips over water..

B O N F I R E!

i love BONFIRES. its just one of those things you enjoy having with friends around. :)

man i LOVE it here.

if you notice that the picture is tilted, well im not really gona do anything about it cuz i think it looks good the way it is.. i believe OCD ppl will be bothered by this, but i really dont know of anyone who has that.. :)

i took these beach pictures at the yacht club.. it was such a beautiful day out except that it was extremely hot & humid.. but everything else was just awesome. there were bunch of fallen trees on the shore, and the sky was so filled with many puffy white clouds..

P I A N O

i caught my brother's fever. & being sick is not the greatest thing. i've hardly been out of bed for 2 days now, and slowly im recovering. sadly, my brother's sickness seems to be getting worst. anyways, since i still dont have a job, i got back into playing piano. practice makes perfect. well didnt really do anything today.. it was LIBERATION DAY on guam.. :) too bad i was stuck at home and couldn't watch the fireworks.

R OO F T O P S

hanging out at Kyle's place.


oh thee boys are keeping it real.. island style..

im not sure if i like this pic.. i edited this one.. and well i think saturation needs to be decreased a bit.. ehh i really dont know.. i just like the depth of field on this one..

drip drip drip.. drop.

so it keeps raining.. i feel like this weather suits what im feeling right now. my uncle passed away, and im leaving tomorrow to the philippines for his funeral. im not a type of person who knows how to handle situations like death properly. its even harder for me to comfort. its going to be my first time meeting all my dad's side of the family. hopefully it goes well.

cute N O L A N!

Nolan cheesing it! :D
